...said the sign at the Guatemala border.

Just got into San Cristobal after a day of school buses, mini-vans, and collective cabs, not to mention walking with BOTH my bags for the first time in a while. Am now at calle Benito Juarez numero 2, where there is an internet cafe that is closing right now, and also a youth hostel (Albergue Juvenil), which I am planning to check out as soon as I finish writing this and they kick me out. If possible, I will probably stay in a dorm here, since it looked like the best option in my Lonely Planet book.

Rolando almost came with me, but lucky he didnt try past Comitan, as they ended up spot-checking us for ID a bit further and he didnt have his passport on him! If you are reading this, Rolando, muchas gracias por todo tu apoyo y amistad estos dias, y cuidate mucho, y nos vemos, pronto espero!

Anyways, gotta try to find a bed for the night! Buenas noches...

[although i never actually slept in the lovely bed pictured [not quite hostel quality], i did hang out on it for a while!]
